Be Creative @ the Library

What an incredible summer Florence Branch Library had! The Summer Reading Program Be Creative @ the Library was a huge success for Youth Services here. With 937 children enrolled in the reading program, the number of registrations increased by 35% from the previous year. That's awesome! The completion rate of 76% was achieved by our dedicated readers and encouraging words from library staff and parents. The summer was filled with storytimes, craft programs, movie days, and amazing programs such as a bubble show, a military band, country animals, a babysitting clinic and more. The finale party attracted 110 children and parents to Florence Branch. Children were entertained with carnival games, popcorn, face painting, and a free book. We're looking forward to next year - Make a Splash @ the Library!
